the door panels themselves are a direct swap. The only modifying lays in the driver door panel for the window switch. The carbon fiber faux pieces have to be cut and wire tied to fit to the LHD usdm switches Do not use the Jdm switch Bc it will burn your fuses I guess different voltage But other than that. The other 3/4 panels are direct bolt in completely

Front Sedan mats are cut differently to accomodate the gas door/trunk release trim piece and are longer at the bottom end. Coupe mats aren't an exact fit but they're better than nothing. Rear mats are completely different for both coupe and sedan.
